Life Update: Hey everyone! I've been radio silent for a while, a year or more. My last newletters promised many books to come before I went dark. In December 2023, I found out I was pregnant. I quickly became very sick, barely able to walk some days. Six months into the pregnancy, I gave birth to a tiny, tiny barely formed little fighter. For three months that he was in the NICU, I didn't for a second think he was going to come home. I only thought to enjoy the time I had with him while he was here. But now as I write this in March 2025, he's home and growing. Slower than his big brother but on his own time. He'll be a year old in June and he still looks a lot like a newborn. This has been the hardest year of my family's lives so please be patient with me as I start anew!

That Time We Died
Contemporary, Literary Fiction
Release Date: Coming Soon
Stefan has always walked a fine line between gift and curse. He has a unique ability—he can see the exact time a person will die—a truth he offers cheaply to strangers in hopes they’ll live without regret. But fame has a cost, and as the world dubs him Tod, The Death Psychic, Stefan’s rising anxiety pushes him into isolation. When a detective connects him to a missing person investigation, Stefan vanishes, leaving behind chaos and riots in his wake—and Desdamona, the one person he thought he could rely on, is nowhere to be found.
Desdamona has spent her life fighting shadows. After a brush with death, she finds herself uniquely able to see how someone plans to end their own life. Using her painful past as fuel, she dedicates herself to saving others from the fate she once escaped. But her mission becomes precarious when a dangerous adversary threatens everything she’s built. Desdamona must face the guilt of her past betrayal and find the courage to reconnect with Stefan—or risk losing the fragile network of hope she’s worked so hard to create.
Spanning years of fleeting encounters and quiet transformations, That Time We Died is a haunting exploration of death, survival, and the connections we choose to nurture. With its quiet speculative touch and profound emotional depth, it’s a story about outgrowing the shadows of our past and forming a family from the broken pieces we carry.

The Craving Series Book One
Release Date: Coming Soon
Leonard is desperate to get away from his miserable job and out of his late foster parents’ home. When he finds out the Victorian ruins he and his siblings used as a hideout is up for sale, he buys it on a whim and soon finds himself in over his head. A highly recommended contractor may be the answer, if only he can keep his eyes on the job and off the fiery beauty who keeps him on his toes.
Edna—Eddie to everyone that knows her—is one step away from proving to her over-bearing mother that she can make it as a contractor in this cutthroat world all without her parents’ help or money. But when the perfect flip property is bought out from under her, she’s determined to win the primary contracting bid. When her new boss turns out to be completely clueless, Eddie finds that this project is going to take more than stubborn will and skill to overcome, especially if her new boss can’t keep his eyes off her.
The Craving Series follows three foster siblings Leonard, Blake, and Ulther as they turn their old abandoned hideout into the forever home for their family, each one finding love along the way.
